Those two Clint flicks showed down the street at the Tennessee Theatre, we always got the Bond flicks,Pink Panthers,Woody Allen, Rockys, type shows.The Manager of the Tennessee Mr. Harry Vickers would let our employees in to see their shows and we would do the same for them.It was a site to see when the Paramont, Tennessee,and Loews Crescent all had big pull shows. WE would all have lines of people waiting to get in at the same time, hundreds of people on Church Street. Those were the days.
No Mike Loews provided the red jackets for our doorman and ushers,but the managers had to wear our own suits.I guess they thought with our “LARGE SALARIES” that we could afford to wear our suits. I had 4 that I would rotate working 6 days a week. I only traded passes for a parking space behind the Loews Crescent as it was downtown and we did not have a parking lot.
Thanks again Chuck1231.I do even have my own pictures of the Theatres that I used to work in. Keep them coming.I have not been on C.T. too long but it is how I spend a lot of my spare time.Great site.
Hey Mike ours were clip-ons,but large type butterflys as someone called them.WE looked cool though.I do not know about you but when I got in Management we had to wear our own suits and neckties.No golf shirts and slacks like the modern managers.
The Texas Theatre should never be known as “Oswalds Theatre” he never owned or leased it.Lee Harvey “maybe” killed our President he should not be honored for it if he did of did not!He was arrested there, that all.
Another thing why do they call it “Oswalds Theatre” he never owned or leased this place.Only in the U.S.A can you get famous for killing someone.No matter who it is.Maybe they should call it O.J.’s.Texas Theatre.

Looked this theatre up for a friend who used to live there,he said it was the only movie house in Crown Point.
Must be a small theatre.
Big low Little low, how low can you go?Cool history.
Whats the problem it was on or at the corner of 86th. Street?
Good luck to you Staten Island Paramount. Good to see the old movie houses still going.
Whats the Loew down on the missing Loews??
Great 1958 Color Photo Ken MC
How about any theatre anywhere? Did you come to see a movie or talk on the phone?You can do that at home.
By the way thanks Lost Memory lots of great shots also!!!!

Very Sad indeed! I friend of mine who lives in Nashville now said Gary Indiania was like a war zone.
Another great old picture Chuck1231, how do you come up with them?
I wonder how many walk ins they could hold?

Should have gone to Subway across the street.
Nice picture of the marquee.
Still looks like a theatre.
One of the few Loews that does not have a vertical sign.Only a small arrow sign saying Loews Ritz hanging under the marquee as seen the the pictures.
Thanks Don S.You must have had this problem too.
Oh by the way the name “Million Dollar Theatre” is great.
Cool keep it going. The you tube stuff does not work too well.
